George Harrison Houston Jr. ’37

He came to Princeton from The Hill School, where he was on the track team and in the band. At Princeton he majored in history and was on the varsity gymnastics team. After graduation he took a trip around Europe with Geof Stengel and Tom Gucker.

Much of Harry's life was in Greenwich, Conn., where he was a trustee of the Old Greenwich Yacht Club and chairman of the sailing committee, a trustee and treasurer of the Dingletown Community Church, and chairman of the Greenwich Board of Education.

Harry had been in the steel business along with some other companies. During the war he worked on antiaircraft guns and later went into the manufacturing of cash registers and taxi meters. He was our ever-genial AG chairman, and we shall miss him.

He was married to Dorothy Cromwell Fielden for 44 years. After her death he married Emily Hoge Booth, who died in 2001. In 2003 he married Virginia Keeney, who survives him. The class extends loving sympathy and fond remembrances to Virginia; Harry's daughter, Dorothy Knauert; his sons Harrison III and Edward; six grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren.
